Liked the show more and more as the season went on. And man, I really have a crush on Rashida Jones now.

I'm really digging this show as well. Really great cast and it's fresh enough that there's still so much to explore. The first season felt a bit too much like the office, but I feel like they are getting their own voice as they go on.

Haven't watched Thursday's episode yet, but I like the addition of Louis C.K. I hope he sticks around.

I’m not really familiar at all with Louis CK, but just running off of the mental image of a comedian in my mind, he’s been brilliant playing the simple and subdued cop. If I didn’t know he was Louis CK, I would have just thought of him as some random actor they just pulled off the streets. That sounded bad, but I’m just trying to say that he does a great job portraying a small town guy.

The episode a few weeks back where they spent time trying to dig up dirt on everyone was hilarious. I don’t even remember the guy in the office that they pick on from before, but I like that running joke now. While I don’t actively think of it in terms of comedies I look forward to watching on the DVR, this show is REALLY coming into its own in terms of charm and enjoyment

Loved Aziz showing up as T-Pain, and I like this subplot they’ve set up about him really loving his wife and not looking forward to their eventual divorce. I think this is going to be the more touching Jim/Pam relationship of this show than the Mark/Anne relationship. I wasn’t a huge fan of Andy during the first season, but I loved him playing pretend FBI during the interrogation.

And I didn’t realize that the intern on this show is going to be in the Scott Pilgrim movie.

While I didn't really care all that much about the relationship between Ron and Tammy during this episode (season 2, episode 8), I absolutely loved the idea of the Parks Department hating the local library. Every time an anti-library slur was uttered by Leslie, I laughed. I'm sure I did so too much and probably annoyed my wife. Still, I found the whole premise hilarious. It really was the highlight of this two hour block of TV.

But maybe I'm biased.

I’m a week behind, but I watched the mural episode last night. I loved Tom’s reaction to the abstract art and ensuing fascination with shapes (“this one’s racist!”). Ron’s over-enjoyment of the shoe-shine was a bit corny, but I totally dug Andy’s “WTF!” interview right afterwards
